| Boxer Tommy Killer McCoy can duck away from a foe's haymaker punch but one thing he can't dodge is bookies eager to rig matches. Now, on the night of his biggest fight, Tommy's supposed to take a dive. If he doesn't, a gambler warns, he may never again see his father or the woman he loves alive. Continuing his move into more assertive roles, Robert Taylor laces up the gloves for the fisticuffs and melodrama of a film that, per one of its taglines, puts the MAN in romance. The cast is one any male in Hollywood would be glad to have in his corner: Frank Morgan, Edward Arnold, Jane Wyman, Lionel Stander and Maureen O'Sullivan, who teamed with Taylor just months before in A Yank at Oxford. |
